Feb. 19 Witnesses who were present when a 41-year-old man stabbed several people at an October pro-Armenia rally in Fresno had a chance to testify in court Thursday.
They said they saw an angry Jaime Fonseca of Fresno confront a group of peaceful Armenian demonstrators near River Park Shopping Center.
After hearing testimony from witnesses, Judge Adolfo Corona ruled Thursday that Fonseca will be tried on two felony counts of assault with a deadly weapon and possession of a lead cane or blackjack.
The judge dropped one of the assault charges saying there was not enough evidence to find Fonseca guilty.
